Hey all,

I’m using the Advanced Recent Post widget but I got a weird thing here. I styled the stylesheet the way I want it to be but somehow I keep a border around the whole frame….. It’s like an ‘inset’ border (one side white, other side grey). Can somebody help me to remove this? Can’t seem to figure out what went wrong and where to look.

I checked the frame of the footer I created, the style option of the widget itself, table rows and more but no where I can find an option of a border that’s placed.

Normally my website will be closed, but when someone what’s to take a look please post a reply and I will get the ‘lock’ off. It’s for my portfolio and find it stupid that people can see me building up the whole thing ??

Your plug-in works very well, however I seem to be having an issue with the thumbnails getting skewed, and stretched. The images are different sizes, so the “one size fits all” thumbnail size section doesn’t really work for me. Even if I put in a size the image looks completely blurry, even-though the picture itself is larger than what the thumbnail is showing. Therefore there shouldn’t be any quality loss.

Anyways, is there a way to get the thumbnail image to not be blurry and stretched?

Adding a class to the After Excerpt link would make that link much easier to style.

Line 411 in the adv-most-recent.php file could be changed from

if ($afterexcerptlink) $afterexcerpt_html = '<a href="' . get_permalink($post->ID) . '">' . $afterexcerpt . '</a>';

to

if ($afterexcerptlink) $afterexcerpt_html = '<a class="afterexcerpt" href="' . get_permalink($post->ID) . '">' . $afterexcerpt . '</a>';

Also when a span is added to the After Excerpt link the plugin isn’t saving it correctly.

For example, when I put <span class="readmore">Read More</span> in there the plugin will display the link correctly on the front side of the site. But it only saves <span class= in the After Excerpt field.

That means the full span code must be pasted in the field every time the widget is saved or the link text disappears.

When the widget displays, there is a line of periods in between titles, like:

* This is the first headline.
………………………….
* This is the second headline.

How would someone go about removing that line of periods?

I would like to use this plugin in a two language site.
Everything else translates except this plugin widget. It show every title, text in every language with shortcodes.
Can you tell me how to correct it?

Just installed this plugin at my site:

And it is amazing! I just have 2 features that I would love.. or maybe there is already a hack for it?

1. Randomize recent post. So that it would display random posts.
2. As there is a Categories field where you can put in the ID’s I would LOVE a Post field where I can write the ID’s of the posts I want to be displayed.

Any one knows how to do any of these? AWESOME plugin!

Is there a way (and why is there not built in)…

to create a small space between the post thumbnail and the title in the most recent post widget?

it looks bad.

Everything is working fine in all browsers except IE7 which unfortunately is very widely used for the demographic of this website. What’s happening in IE7, is that the title of every post after the first one(not sure why the first one works fine) is broken up into one word per line and the thumbnails are not showing up.

I tried to play with the CSS but to no avail. Here’s the link to the site:

Here’s the extra CSS I created to style the widget:

I’ve been trying to troubleshoot this for days, any help would be greatly appreciated. While not a fan of IE, it’s necessary to fix the styling for my client.

Hi,

This plugin is working really well, it would just be great if it automatically displayed “alt” tags so the markup validates properly. Any ideas on how I can achieve this?

Also, it would be awesome to have the option not to display the text, just thumbnails in certain cases.

Thanks for a great plugin!

Everything works fine until you go to view an individual post, for whatever reason the main body of content (only) vanishes -reapers when you deactivate the plugin.

I can’t find where in the code for this widget to add a line break. I don’t like the first line of text running directly after the thumbnail of the picture. I’d just suit me to have a line break in there. Can anyone help me figure out where to put it in the widgets code.

here’s an example of what I have and you can tell that it would just look better having the text start underneath.
